Hidden-city ticketing?

Not sure what AirTran's policy is on hidden-city ticketing, but their one-way fares probably make it relatively easy. Just noticed a good opportunity for anyone traveling BWI-ATL in the next few weeks. Airtran.com web fares:

Hidden-city ticketing is not prohibited on AirTran. Of course, it's not a practice the company promotes, but if you find a lower fare to a connecting city even if Atlanta is your final destination, you are welcome to book such a ticket. Unlike on legacy carriers, the rest of your itinerary won't cancel out if you don't fly all segments, so you can even book the hidden-city ticket as a roundtrip if desired. If checking bags, just tell the agent that ATL is your final destination and the bags can be tagged as such.

I checked in online, which seems to be the most hassle-free way of using this trick. But an agent (or perhaps even a kiosk) can just check you in for the second segment, I'd imagine, once you tell them what you're doing.

how would one go about doing this. i need a trip from fll to las on airtran really cheap please help.

For instance, I need to go ATL --> PHL on short notice, which is HIDEOUSLY expensive right now. However, MEM --> ATL --> PHL is currently on sale for $79. Can I still get on my second segment if I throw away the first? Will there be problems in ATL, since it seems to have higher security than some smaller airports?

I know this thread ended three years ago, but I want to know if anyone has done this on Airtran recently. I am going to do this in about a month, and I would like to know if the policy has changed... As I understand they did not penalize for hidden city ticketing in the past.

I have done four times with Aritran..
I beleive two times with United and four times with Delta. Most recent one was April 2009. I have not had any problem.

I read this too. I just wanted to confirm with someone else that they didn't get their credits. I'm not expecting any for my trip, but if I do it will be a pleasant surprise and I'll be sure to post here about it!
